☼✵☼

"Oh my god we were right about Jeongguk, Jimin and Taehyung." Namjoon laughed as they passed the store they had mentioned earlier, watching as Jeongguk bolted out and hid from the two older boys.

"Oh my god," Seokjin snorted.

"This is great."

"What time are we all leaving?"

"After everyone finishes."

"So never. Hobi's gonna spend the whole damn time arguing with Yoongi about how he doesn't deserve to be spoiled and shit."

"Yoongi's doing it anyway."

"Hobi'll refuse to pick anything out."

"Yoongi will pick it for him."

"Then he won't wear it."

"He'd put them on him himself."

"Hobi would like, actually cry."

"And Yoongi would cry too and then they'd both be crying."

"Why would Yoongi cry?"

"Because Yoongi's an emotional time bomb."

"I'd think he'd get more angry or something because he basically wasted his money."

"That too."

"And then Hobi would feel bad and cry even more. Then he'd suck it up and wear the clothes but feel absolutely horrid the whole day."

"And then Yoongi would feel bad and start crying."

"This whole thing is a train wreck for them."

"This happens every generation Hobi has abusive parents."

"Why? How bad are his parents?"

"Bad."

"How bad?"

"Worse than my parents bad."

"I don't know how bad your parents are."

"They're bad. Like superbad."

"What did his parents do?"

"I don't know if I can right now cos it'd get depressing."

"Tell me when we get home so no one's crying in the middle of the mall."

"Okay."

"Can you give me like an example now?"

"Sold him off."

"Like, to an adoption center or something?"

"No. Not even close."

"I'm confused, then."

"Like, as a slave basically."

"To like, clean houses?"

"Black market slaves. Sex slaves, stuff like that."

"I was trying to avoid that conclusion."

"Oh well."

"Anyways, where to now?"

"I have no idea."

"I don't need much else, so."

"M'kay."

"We could go home?"

"Gotta wait for everyone else."

"Why?"

"To make sure everyone comes home safely."
